Previous update from neighborhood:
A proposed landmark redevelopment project at the corner of Third Ave & Fourth Street SE received unanimous City Council approval for Incentive Development this past week. The redevelopment project dubbed The Buckeye is a $17 million dollar, six story mixed-use apartment building (80% market rate/20% affordable) with retail on the main level, and structured parking integrated into the building footprint, and street-scaping to include trees and benches. Slatterly Park leadership has worked closely with the developer since the spring of 2015 to incorporate design principles, and encourage public/private partnerships with adjacent property owners. The Slatterly Park board wrote a letter of support to City Council pointing out the great communication with the developer (The Stencil Group) and the willingness to work with the neighborhood. The letter also encouraged the developer to incorporate a public art piece at the corner of 3rd & 4th as an ode to Slatterly Park’s effort to become the artist quarter of downtown, and our efforts with Art on the Ave
